USAID contracts so far in fiscal 2015

USAID contracts

The Agency for International Development, or USAID, has signed $1,798,101,361 in contracts so far in fiscal 2015. In some cases, the contract amount is for 0 dollars. In other cases, contractors are returning funds to USAID. The net amount spent is $1.7 billion.
The numbers are straight from USASpending.gov. You can see the difference that a comma makes. Chemonics International, Inc. is listed in the No. 3 spot with $158,432,158 in contracts. Chemonics without the comma is in the No. 7 spot with $50,048,172 in contracts. The total: $208,480,330 - good enough for No. 1.
